If you are not careful enough this thing might take all your money away

Emails  – Mostly we received emails, we only read the subject and if we read something interesting or alarming we click it right away, I can say that somethings due to fear of losing something, we lose our cool and we just click it, and from there a lot of things happen, it might steal information, or sensitive data from our pc or lead to hacking.

Phishing site – This might also come from email links, we thought it’s the same website that we are opening but its just a disguise for hackers to steal information, also if we open a website we login our credentials and later we realized that its not the real site, and its too late your crypto or money have been stolen.

A personal message   – we have lots of social media platforms, Facebook, telegram Twitter, etc, we often received messages sometimes from our friends later that we know they are hacked, and someone has taking control of it, asking for money or even asking for investment money, also received message saying you can have 100% return in just two days

Investment – more people are getting scam every day due to investment schemes, they try to make you believe, by letting you get the money on the first try and ask you to invest more, once you are hook in they will just disappear.
Referrals  -  this may also lead to scam people sending you referrals since you see that the price is big and possible you can be a millionaire you invest a lot of money, but sadly it's just a fake one

Note: I am not saying that all that we received might lead to scam or hacking, but this is just a reminder for us to be careful, there are lots of reminders but we still fall for these schemes, taking extra caution and research is necessary don’t ask a person who recommends something to you if it's legit or not instead make your own research and ask people who are already years in this business, asking advice or question is not but we just want to make sure that our money will not go to waste

We can’t really avoid it 100% because sometimes our emotions step in, like other people says don’t get emotional when investing, because it will not help you, it might put you in a disadvantageous situation.
I made this post because I read last time that still there are people getting scam and hacked, even with others reminding them to be careful investing, and hacking.

Hope ill be able to help newbies and members be aware of these things,
